Personal Pasta in Bad Homburg

The Trattoria Fantastico in Bad Homburg is known to many German TV viewers as “Stein’s” – the restaurant in the ARD detective series “Polizeiruf 110“.

But for local residents it is an Italian restaurant with a difference. Here the guests can order not only from the menu, but they can also be personally advised by the staff.

They help the guests to find their perfect combination of fish, meat and pasta – all freshly prepared and served with the appropriate wine.

At lunchtime they serve set menus in three different price categories, consisting of either a main course and a starter.

The restaurant can also be booked for private events of up to 50 people.

Located just off the main shopping area (Louisenstr.) in Bad Homburg, it is easily accessible for visitors to the town wishing to try an Italien restaurant with a difference – and to enjoy “Mediterranean moments with Pino and his team”.

Eating Italian in Bad Homburg II

Another place for good Italian food is hidden away in the old part of the town:

Ristorante Pizzeria Desirée
Obergasse 10-12
61348 Bad Homburg

Tel.: 06172 23524

The food is good and both pizza and pasta can be recommended.  I discovered Desirée when I was on an Italian crash course at the adult education centre (VHS), which is just around the corner.

The serviettes contain basic Italian phrases, like “please”, “thank you”, and so on, what adds to the atmosphere if you’re brave enough to try them out!

Eating Italian in Bad Homburg

There are lots of places for Italian food in Bad Homburg. Here is one of my favourites:

La Piazza Toscana
Rathausplatz 3-7
61348 Bad Homburg

Tel.: 06172 21010

Why? Well first of all the food is very good. When I worked in Bad Homburg I used to order lunch from them sometimes, in more recent years I’ve gone there myself in my lunch hour.

In the summer there are tables and chairs outside on the Rathausplatz (behind the town hall).

My favourite dish is “Pasta alla mamma Angela” (Nr.56 in the old days!) This is pasta in a cream sauce with peas, ham, onions and parmesan.

There are weekly offers and if you sign up to the mailing list on their website http://www.pizzeriatoscana.de/ then you get a mail, usually late on Sunday or early on Monday, with all the details.

On top of this, they also have WLAN inside the restaurant!

As a side note: on more than one occasion I’ve been in an obscur part of Bad Homburg and have ordered pizza to be delivered, giving a description of where I am and how to find me – but not an actual address. They’ve found me and delivered every time!
